@@quocanhnguyen4563 I don’t think so, because people use dice to denote the adjusted cost or power of characters. I think this is similar in concept since it’s useable equipment.
The early Rocket Luffy really took the wind out of Doffy's sails and the gamble on Pudding didnt work out later in the game. Unfortunate for the Doffy but still a fun game to watch, regardless! Vegapunk played extremely well!
That Pudding did more harm than good. The Vegapunk drew a bunch of low cost Egghead cards and left his deck with high end cards and the shuffle gave him those boss characters.
I agree, but I wonder if the risk doesn't outweigh the potential reward, he did get to search A TON & build up his hand so you gamble on the reset & disruption.
@@atrocioustcg Law is definitely rough but they NEED to see their -3k cards back to back to back if they want to remove any of the 5 drops since they're 6k's. Black is absolutely a hard matchup and from experience it's just playing the long game to starve them of resources while trying to stay alive and using robin triggers to draw you cards
@@TraderAndys this makes a ton of sense tbh. I imagine that cheating out those big bodies easier than RP Law (or any deck) can make you so good so early it’s hard to overcome
@@atrocioustcg absolutely, we either widen our board or once they start getting aggressive that's when yamato removal and 1 don for life will come in clutch to survive the upcoming turn. The deck is tons of fun and catches a lot of people off guard but if given tons of testing, the deck can absolutely be a rogue counter-meta pick. The deck rn is still missing good defensive options like the yellow Nami/Boa sr upcoming next set .
33:32 i dont think they play the bonney and they play that enel event removal but they didn't get to use it because they bottom it and they play linlin too
Vegapunk is fun and can do a lot of damage but still loses a ton. I think it’ll be better with op08 cards. Right now it’s too hard to stay consistent. Still a lot better than people thought it would be.
I know it's not a big issue but that's just a regular Nami card that is from Egghead. Onami was her alias in Wano arc lol. Otherwise, appreciate the good work.

@@atrocioustcgit is against the rules, for the English version at least. You cannot use a die to track secret information. They can only be used to track public info, like costs of character on board. As far as this tournament, the judges allowed it, but this is an exception and not a hard rule.
@@theperson98 but isn’t the number of searches public info? He’s not tracking something like the number of big bodies, right? Both players technically know how many searches a player makes (I’m not judge certified, just trying to understand)
I made the Vegapunk list! The player has not made the list public. I based this list off of what we saw in the game, I think my list in the top 4 video is most accurate
I was wondering that same thing 🤔 I think the reason is you want to be able to use leader effect. Knowing what you put in life may be more valuable than a blind life.
we don't have that info yet so not too sure, but as always I provide a sample list in the video & talk about some of the changes that were probably made
to my understanding, it's more valuable to use leader effect on a 10 don turn than use Ace. You could use a different big body to gain 2 life in one turn instead of Ace doing just one.
@@atrocioustcg You don't have to be bro, we're not talking about the anime. The card itself has the name spelled out and you know what the card does already so you definitely have seen the name on the card. Its been in the TCG for like a month now. I'm not even caught up and i saw the name Shaka from the card.
I'll never understand why players play their characters on top of other characters and have the most insanely messy boards when there is clearly MORE than enough space for them to play their characters down neatly.. I strongly feel like players that's do that shit should be heavily penalized
I understand the need to space them out & such, but that’s my own personal issue. So long as the gamestate is recognizeable and players aren’t lying about gamestates it’s fine tbh

I love this commentary type videos of japan tournaments. Thank you for your uploads and keep the amazing work !
Thank you so much!!! I try my best, hopefully Bandai-sama notices me someday :')
It was such a great surprise seeing this live! Can’t wait to see the decklist
Hopefully it comes!! It's not officially out, but I liked the player's twitter account so maybe he'll post it there someday

Oh 100%! Being able to cheat out a body like that was SO strong in the early game.
Thank you for the commentary :)

5 cards is never better than 8 cards
These videos are super dope love watching them with your commentary
Thank you!!!! 🫶
I've been on Vega since release, deck is absolutely goated and mad people slept on it
It's biggest issue is probably RP Law, right? Lucci / BY Luffy probably is closer than people think.

I play VG on release too, honestly enel is my worst matchup RP law 2nd
33:32 i dont think they play the bonney and they play that enel event removal but they didn't get to use it because they bottom it and they play linlin too
yeah thats kinda what i reflected in the list i showed too!!
Any idea where I can find the decklist of the Doflamingo ?
OnePieceTopDecks.com! My #1 resource to recommend for eastern lists
totally off topic but where did you get your sweater? haha
LOL waaaaay long ago, my buddy Purplecliffe had a merch sale where you could buy sweatshirts and a few orders would get the shiny version (one I have)
@@atrocioustcgW
About to build vegapunk 😂
REAL
Vegapunk is fun and can do a lot of damage but still loses a ton. I think it’ll be better with op08 cards. Right now it’s too hard to stay consistent. Still a lot better than people thought it would be.
Celebrating more enel it's like celebrating a disease.
I'd rather see 3 Enel in top 16 than 10+ RP Law.
I know it's not a big issue but that's just a regular Nami card that is from Egghead. Onami was her alias in Wano arc lol. Otherwise, appreciate the good work.
I know I noticed it after the match, I was like "GAHHHHHHH" D: That's what happens when you're not caught up on the anime
can someone explain to me what is OP08.5 ?
Basically the most recent set is OP08! Since there’s a banlist that changes the format, you differentiate the new one by calling it “OP08.5”!
i think the green die is for counting how many times he searched through the deck overall.
yes!!! I ended up seeing that exact player tweet his reasoning for it, honestly kind of a neat trick if your deck has a ton of aggressive search.
Doesnt that count as note taking? Therefore, against the rules?

Sadly never released :/ so we’re mostly running on assumptions / other people trying & testing

Why doesnt vega use 10c ace

I watched that on live. It was really fun.
such a SICK game! I'm too old to stay up that late, but Sunday's are usually free for me right now so I just catch up right after waking up LOL
What is the deck list for the vegapunk he is running?
we don't have that info yet so not too sure, but as always I provide a sample list in the video & talk about some of the changes that were probably made
can you post the punk list i cant find it
As always there’s a list shown in the video
@@atrocioustcg yeah but it’s kinda hard to see or copy
@@atrocioustcg because I do wanna test it on the Sim

Doffy list?
There’s one in the video!

@@khaall969 there's a doffy decklist in the video I promise lol

I wonder why 7C Mom over 10C Ace...
to my understanding, it's more valuable to use leader effect on a 10 don turn than use Ace. You could use a different big body to gain 2 life in one turn instead of Ace doing just one.
Please... Dear god, stop saying "Chaka", the characters name you are referring to is called Shaka with an S 😂
